Visual Computing

We present a method for projecting arbitrary color images using a white light source and an optical device with no colored components—consisting solely of one or two prisms and two transparent masks.

In this paper we present a novel system to extract keyframes, shot clusters and structural storyboards for video content description, which can be used for a variety of summarization, visualization, classification, indexing and retrieval applications.

This paper presents underwater 3D capture using a commercial depth camera.

This paper presents an automated approach for analyzing both motions and environments in order to represent the different ways in which an environment can afford a character to move.

In this paper, we present a complete hardware system for fully automatic MVS.

We present a method to continuously blend between multiple facial performances of an actor, which can contain different facial expressions or emotional states.

This paper proposes photogeometric scene flow (PGSF) for high-quality dynamic 3D reconstruction.

In this paper, we analyze the illumination requirements for single-day outdoor PS to yield stable normal reconstructions, and determine that these requirements are often available in much less than a full day.

We propose a method for reducing noise in images created by any tone mapping operator.

This paper discusses the benefits and tradeoffs between agent-centric and event-centric approaches towards authoring the domain knowledge of story worlds.
